This marks the fourth consecutive year that ADP has been recognized for excellence and leadership in diversity by DiversityInc. In addition to its overall Top 50 ranking this year, ADP also ranked fifth in The DiversityInc Top 10 Companies for Latinos, sixth in the Top 10 Companies for Veterans, and ninth in the Top 10 Companies for Executive Women. The full list can be found at www.DiversityInc.com/top50.

“ADP’s inclusive work environment embraces the different cultures, experiences, perspectives, ideas, talents and backgrounds of our associates, and encourages their individual expression and professional development so we can better serve our clients and the communities in which we work and live,” said Rita Mitjans, chief diversity and corporate social responsibility officer at ADP. “We take great pride in being recognized by DiversityInc for demonstrating best practices in diversity and inclusion, and accept this honor on behalf of our associates around the world.”

To qualify for DiversityInc’s Top 50 Companies for Diversity, participating companies must have more than 1,000 employees and must fill out a detailed questionnaire based completely on empirical questions about CEO commitment, human capital, internal and external communications, and supplier diversity. The list, now in its 13th year, is editorially driven and completely based on metrics. A total of 893 companies filled out the survey this year.

"ADP continues to make significant progress in its D&I efforts as its resource groups and talent-development initiatives increase. The company's top level (CEO and direct reports) has 50 percent more Blacks, Latinos and Asians than the average for the DiversityInc Top 50," said DiversityInc CEO Luke Visconti.
